Puzzles, Predicaments, and Perplexities (Fantasy Grounds)

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Average Rating (16 ratings)

FG logo

Adventurers need much more than just brute force, magical powers, and nimble moves in order to survive the dangers that await them. A sharp mind is just as important as a sharp sword. When faced with a challenging puzzle, finding the solution can be the difference between victory and defeat, now for Fantasy Grounds!

Puzzles, Predicaments, and Perplexities contains a collection of logic puzzles, brain teasers, and encoded sequences intended to test the problem solving and deductive reasoning of characters and players. These puzzles are designed to be easily placed into any adventure with no additional work, yet also provide guidance on how Dungeon Masters can customize the details to best fit into their own campaigns.

This title includes:

  • 10 original puzzles for use in your adventures.
  • Instructions on how to scale the difficulty of the puzzles for characters of all levels.
  • Hints for each puzzle to guide players towards the solution without simply giving it away.
  • Guidance for customizing the puzzles to fit into your own adventure, campaign, or original world.
  • Optional “Raise The Stakes” sidebars for making puzzles more deadly.
  • 5 original maps suitable for in person or online play.
  • 4 original hand-outs that help visualize the layout, runes, and symbols involved with some of the puzzles.
  • A table listing of spells potentially triggered by failed solutions organized by Tier and danger level.

“A new unofficial supplement on DMs Guild may become my new best friend. I read one of the puzzles, and I am already thinking of how to incorporate it into my campaign.” - Geek Tyrant

“Good D&D puzzles are hard to come by, even on the Internet, so Puzzles, Predicaments, and Perplexities is an easy buy for anyone who designs dungeons that aren't just a series of rooms with enemies to fight and kill.” - Comicbook.com

“This unofficial supplement to Dungeons and Dragons campaigns gives an adjustable difficulty to balance things out. Dungeon Masters would surely love this supplement.” - HexMojo

Pretty disappointed, I purchased this and it can't be added to Roll20 or be downloaded. How are you suppose to access this?

Grim Press, I bought the bundle on Dungeon Master Guild and have tried everything I can think of to access this guide but having real difficulty viewing it. I am on a Mac with the latest update, which it said it was compatible so Im not sure what the problem is

I have also tried going to my nearest library and using their Windows PC's but I am having no luck in actually viewing the material I paid for. I have tried opening the files on DMG as well as on dropbox. I cannot download the DrivethruRPG app onto library computers so that is the only avenue I have not tried on Windows. I am at a loss, any help will be appreciated

Hi xavier P,

Thanks for reaching out.

We do not offer a bundle for this product.

We support the product technically, but this is a product we adapted for Fantasy Grounds, not wrote.

You would likely have better feedback asking questions about the product to the author (possibly from the PDFs product page and if you can't find their socials).

Hi christopher K,

Grim Press supports the product technically, but this is a product we adapted for FG, not wrote.
We are currently not converting 5e to 3.5e.

You would likely have better feedback asking questions about a conversion to 3.5e to the author 'Wizard Sleeve Studios'
(possibly from the PDFs product page located at the bottom of our screenshot if you can't find their socials).

Hey Paul,
Sorry about that! If you reach out to DMsGuild support, they should give you a refund so you can buy the PDF version.

Web DM made a video about their favorite guild content, and that brought me here. Yay puzzles! Can't wait to try it. Making puzzles can be rough and if Jim liked it, I know it will be great for my games.

Is there any way that I could get a refund for this product? I accidentally bought the wrong bundle; I meant to buy the pdf version instead of the fantasy ground version. If it's possible to switch from the fantasy grounds to the pdf that would be perfect as well.

Hi Eric,

Unfortunately we are only the authors of the FG version (not the publisher) so we cannot issue refunds. You will need to reach out to the DMsGuild customer service and I'm sure they can get that processed for you:

This module has been updated with a more organized reference manual and a cleaner presentation throughout.

To apply the update, delete the old version of this module from your Fantasy Grounds / Modules folder and put the new download in that folder.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
